well there is obviously warning lights on all the trucks but 1...and no that is not a requirement at least not in maryland

It's not required here legally but I have a few accounts where the property owners require it. Also, when I plowed as a sub in the past it was also a requirement. Theres too many dumba** people who dont look before they drive and in the snow they seem to get even worse, I'd rather my trucks be visible then be hit.

I crack up at these guys with lightbars on their trucks. Is they're really a need for that ever? I can understand it if you run a tree service and do work on the street. But come on, parking in front of someones house doesn't justify the need enough for me.

Have you ever heard of snow plowing? I also like to have them if we are working on a busy road, it never HURTS to have them.

I was referring to regular LCO's and not plow operators. Plow operators I can understand. I haven't even seen a snowplow in years where I live, they keep one at the CalTrans yard to scrape mud off the canyon roads.
